Between Five Bells Pinot Noir 2021

Whole bunches of Mariafeld clone Pinot Noir are carefully placed in a 5000lt cuve. A small amount of fermenting Pinot Meunier juice is introduced into the bottom of the tank. This allows the intact berries to be enveloped by CO2, allowing a true carbonic maceration. The sheer weight of the fruit above crushes the berries at the bottom allowing more sweet juice to join the ferment. This technique encourages the development of a beautiful silky mouth feel while maintaining vibrant fruity aromas. This is one of those ‘great drinking pinot’. Made to be light bright and easy drinking but still holds onto a fine tannin, giving complexity and sophistications to those who are seeking it. Juicy red cherry, pomegranate, and orange rind.
